7) The accountant preparing the income statement for Bakersfield, Inc. had some doubts
about the appropriate accounting treatment of the seven items listed below during the
fiscal year ending December 31, 2014 . Assume a tax rate of 40 percent.
1>The corporation experienced an uninsured flood loss of $70,000 before taxes. While
this loss meets the criteria of an extraordinary item, it has not been recorded.
2>The corporation disposed of its sporting goods division during 2014 . This disposal
meets the criteria for discontinued operations. The division correctly calculated income
from operating this division of $110,000 before taxes and a loss of $12,000 before taxes
on the disposal of the division. All of these events occurred in 2014 and have not been
recorded.
3>The company recorded advances of $10,000 to employees made December 31, 2014
as Salaries and Wages Expense.
4>Dividends of $10,000 during 2014 were recorded as an operating expense.
5>In 2014, Bakersfield changed its method of accounting for inventory from the
first-in-first-out method to the average cost method. Inventory in 2014 was correctly
recorded using the average cost method. The new inventory method would have
resulted in an additional $125,000 of cost of goods sold (before taxes) being reported on
prior years' income statement.
6>Office equipment purchased January 1, 2014 for $60,000 was incorrectly charged to
Supplies Expense at the time of purchase. The office equipment has an estimated
three-year service life with no expected salvage value. Bakersfield uses the straight-line
method to depreciate office equipment for financial reporting purposes. This error has
not been recorded.
7>On January 1, 2010, Bakersfield bought a building that cost $85,000, had an
estimated useful life of ten years, and had a salvage value of $5,000. Bakersfield uses
the
straight-line depreciation method to depreciate the building. In 2014, it was estimated
that the remaining useful life was eight years and the salvage value was zero.
Depreciation expense reported on the 2014 income statement was correctly calculated
based on the new estimates. No adjustment for prior years' depreciation estimates was
made.
Part A. For each item, record corrections to income from continuing operations before
taxes, if any. Denote any negative numbers by using brackets < >.
Part B. At January 1, 2014, Bakersfield, Inc.'s retained earnings balance was $200,000.
Assume that income from continuing operations (before taxes) and after correctly
considering any of the seven additional items was $1,400,000. Prepare the income
statement and retained earnings statement. Denote negative numbers by using
brackets < >. Do not disclose earnings per share data.
